The multiplication of incidents around football matches in France and the travel ban on Tuesday evening for supporters of Sevilla FC on the Lens side in the Champions League, has some observers fearing the worst for the Paris 2024 Olympic Games.
It is now in seven and a half months that the Paris 2024 Olympic Games will begin. A great sporting event with global impact, which France will therefore host. But the general context linked to security gives rise and grows in some people a real fear of a real fiasco in the event of a problem. The decision taken this Monday by the Minister of the Interior, Gérald Darmanin, to prohibit the arrival of Sevilla FC supporters, Tuesday evening in Lens, as part of a Champions League match, reinforced certain doubts.
On the set of the channel The Team, Ludovic Obraniak gave his feelings on the subject. And obviously, the former Polish international is not very reassured about the Olympics. “It seems to me that we are going to host an event which is ‘general public’, which is in a few months, and if this type of situation is not a test (management of the Lens-Sevilla FC match, editor’s note)… Because we saw it, we are not ready. We have seen it recently, we are far from being ready in terms of security, in terms of reception, in terms of organization. I saw again that the mayor of Paris (Anne Hidalgo) who said that on transport, it wasn’t going to be over, that it was going to be a mess.“
“I’m super worried”
For the consultant, those responsible still have a lot of work to do. “ I don’t know what they’re playing at, but in any case, if there, a few months before the Olympics, this trip doesn’t have a test value, to be able to say precisely: ‘How do we do it? How do we organize?’. But I’m super worried about what’s going to happen in a few months. » Before these famous 2024 Olympic Games, this decision by Gérald Darmanin to prohibit the travel of Sevillian supporters is in any case causing a lot of talk and reaction. The Lensois supporters quickly indicated on Monday evening that they would do what was necessary to welcome their Spanish counterparts, if they still came.
